You should hold out for a couple of years. You’re sitting on a gold mine. In 2009 when that train runs into Seattle, your neighborhood will be the Next Big Thing — 18 minutes to Uwajimaya, 24 minutes to the Showbox. Trade the white picket fence for a pot of gold and move back to Capitol Hill, where folks will be ditching their two-year old condos ’cause they didn’t realize how noisy it can be.

hear ya. SE Snoreline is lovely for all the trees, but aurora? lake shitty way? 15th ave NE? ugh. hideous. no ambiance, no community, no PCC! walked the dog to the P.O. yesterday and was missing my old hood (wedgwood) so, so much. on the bright side, we got to walk home through snowy hamlin park (an unoffish off-leash dog park). that warmed my soul and took away all the ick of 15th Ave NE in a jiffy.

That’s beautiful snowy scene We’re lucky here living both close to the city and also on the edge of a national park (Peak District), We’d hate to have to move closer to the hustle and bustle.

Oh Yes! I hear you Ariel. Sometimes I drive up to my home… look at all the churches, schools, and commercialism and want to barf. You know it’s REALLY bad, when you drive home and don’t want to get out of the car. I’ve sat for about an hour at one point… looking…shaking my head and wondering, “how the hell did I get myself into this mess?” If you have the opportunity to move… I say — Do it! Hearts go dark without proper care and we both know how important it is to feel connected with our space. The cafe’s, markets… now that is living! (oh shit. I think I need to take my own advice….)
